What visitors say

The grounds contain the mausoleums of Emperor Toba and Emperor Konoe, and visitors can view architectural structures such as the Taho-to (Five-Story Pagoda). During special opening periods, important cultural properties such as the statue of Amida Nyorai (Amitabha Buddha) can be viewed. Goshuin (a temple's calligraphic seal stamp) are distributed at the reception desk. The grounds are relatively compact, but visitors can freely explore from the Sanmon (main gate) to the Shoin (study) and the Yakushi-do (Medicine Hall).
